On-chip integrated silicon bulk-micromachined soil moisture sensor based on the DPHP method

This paper reports the design, modelling, fabrication and assembly of a silicon bulk-micromachined soil moisture microsensor using the Dual-Probe Heat-Pulse (DPHP) method. Soil humidity measurement is essential to studysoil preservation and control the development of plants, namely in closed ecosyst...
